Briton charged with blackmailing Tesco

 

PATTAYA : A British man charged with blackmailing Tesco last year was arrested on the same charge yesterday. Alexander John Winstone, 37, was nabbed in Pattaya after having spent time behind bars last year for a similar crime.

 

He sent emails to blackmail Tesco Lotus, the Thai outlet of the British giant supermarket chain, threatening to damage the image of the superstore by various means, police said.

 

He will be extradited to stand trial in Britain, said Central Investigation Bureau deputy chief Pol Maj-Gen Panya Mamen.

 

In June 8 last year, he was arrested at an internet cafe in Sukhumvit Soi 4 after Scotland Yard alerted Thai police to catch a man who had sent threatening emails to the superstore's executives in London.

 

Then, he threatened to poison food in Tesco supermarkets in Thailand if they did not pay him two million pounds (136 million baht) in cash.
